Around 200 million men across the globe have the Y-DNA haplogroup R1b. It is the most common Y-DNA lineage in Western Europe today, accounting for the paternal ancestry of over 110 million men. It is also very common in men of European ancestry who live across the world. In the US for example, R1b is the most common Y-DNA haplogroup, as you can see in this table.
